Fluoride is used in the manufacturing of ceramics, pesticides, aerosol propellants, refrigerants, glassware, and Teflon cookware. 20-30% of all drugs sold contain fluoride, including some of the most well-known antidepressants and statins.1
For example, in 2008, these were the top 10 selling drugs that contained the fluorine atom:
- Statins (Lipitor, Crestor, Vytorin, Zetia/Ezetimibe)
- Anti-inflammatories (fluticasone propionate, Celebrex)
- Antacids (Prevacid)
- Antidepressants (Lexapro)
- Neuroleptics (Risperdal)
- Antibiotics (Levaquin
Some organofluorine drugs metabolize into fluoride. Studies show that fluoride levels in the urine or blood elevate after the use of the following drugs:
Fluoride is also the unwanted byproduct of aluminium, fertilizer, and iron ore manufacturing and is a waste product that manufacturers do not want pay to store safely for long periods of times. Unfortunately, fluoride is now allowed to be dumped and diluted into our water supplies.
Fluoride is toxic to the human body (brain, heart and bones) and is non-essential to human life.3,4
As of July 18, 2022, a total of 85 human studies have investigated the relationship between fluoride and human intelligence.
Of these investigations, 76 studies have reported that elevated fluoride exposure is associated with reduced IQ in humans. The studies which reported an association of reduced IQ with exposure to fluoride, are based on IQ/cognitive examinations of 28,234 children (73 studies) and 689 adults (3 studies).
The Mother-Offspring fluoride studies provide compelling evidence that fluoride exposure during the prenatal and postnatal of life can damage a child’s developing brain. Bottom line, fluoride can be toxic to the nervous system.
We drinking water that has had fluoride removed and select toothpastes that are fluoride free. As for your regular dental cleaning, always opt out from any fluoride polishing agents.
Major sources of fluoride include municipal water[1], dental polish[2], pesticides[3], pharmaceuticals[4], processed foods & beverages[5], tea drinks[6], mechanically deboned meat[7], teflon pans[8], work place (aluminum, fertilizer, iron, oil refining, semi-conductor, steel industries)[9]
